Turn the loop until you have the best reception.
Notes:
• If the AM loop antenna wire is covered with vinyl,
remove the vinyl by twisting it as shown in the diagram.
• Make sure the antenna conductors do not touch any
other terminals, connecting cords and power cord. This
could cause poor reception.
• If reception is poor, connect an outdoor single vinyl-covered wire to
the AM EXT terminal. (Keep the AM loop antenna connected.)

Connecting the Speakers

You can connect the following speakers:
• Two pairs of front speakers to produce normal stereo sound.
• One pair of rear speakers to enjoy the surround effect.
• One center speaker to produce more effective surround effect (to
emphasize human voices).
• One powered subwoofer to enhance the bass.
IMPORTANT:
After connecting the speakers listed above, set the speaker
setting information properly:
• To obtain the best possible Surround and DSP effect in the
main room, see page 29.
• To use the Multi-room function, see "Setting the Front
Speakers Either for the Main Room or Sub-room" on page
27.
For each speaker (except for a subwoofer), connect the (+) and (–)
terminals on the rear panel to the (+) and (–) terminals marked on
the speakers. For connecting a subwoofer, see page 7.
CAUTION:
Use speakers with the SPEAKER IMPEDANCE indicated by the
speaker terminals.
Snap the tabs on the loop into the
slots of the base to assemble the
AM loop.

IMPORTANT for FRONT 1 SPEAKERS connection:
To obtain the best possible output power from the receiver, and to
prevent the receiver from being overheated, the receiver has the
SPEAKER LOAD SELECTOR which has to be set as follows:
• Set it to the "HIGH" position when the impedance of the front
speakers connected is within the range of 8
• Set it to the "LOW" position when the impedance of the front
speakers connected is within the range of 4
